Solanum lycopersicum Mighty Mato 'Black Cherry'


('productnameshort')

Mighty Mato grafted tomatoes produce 2-3 times (or more!) fruit than ungrafted plants and are more cold tolerant and disease resistant.


Description:
'Black Cherry' is a crowd-pleaser at our Heirloom Tomato Festival tastings with purple-black cherry tomatoes with an exceptionally sweet, complex flavor that earns its high ratings each year. Great yield. 75 days. Indeterminate. Mighty Mato grafted tomatoes are hand grafted onto super strong tomato rootstock which provides greater disease resistance, greater cold tolerance (so tomatoes start growing faster in the spring), and great yield. Mighty Mato grafted plants usually produce 2-3 times more fruit than ungrafted plants, a difference that is especially large for heirloom varieties which do not always offer high yields.
